Welcome!

Welcome to Nimbulus (latin dimunitive for "mini-cloud"), an informal group of friends and tinkerers who share an interest in science, computing, and building cool things ourselves.

Some of our current interests include:

• Computational chemistry and catalysis
• Large language models and scientific automation
• Music technology, hardware design, and computational composition
• Reinforcement learning and agentic games
• DIY electronics and soft material systems
• Open science, reproducibility, and making sense of AI-generated information

This site also hosts a few services we use ourselves — a wiki, VPN, email — and documents things we’ve learned along the way. You're welcome to explore or get in touch if any of it seems useful or interesting.

If you're curious, want to collaborate, or just want to talk shop about science or systems, feel free to reach out to any of us.
